Better served than 18 % of the 15,268 communes of a similar size.

Compare this with communes of a similar size. The score measures how well a place is served relative to its own size band, and larger communes score higher as a rule — so it reads meaningfully against another village, and misleadingly against a town.

Climate

Measured at the CUY SAINT FIACRE_SAPC weather station, 7.7 km away at 104 m; the village itself is at 161 m. ^[13]

The village sits 57 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[13]

An average of 737 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 6.1 mm on a day it rains. ^[13]

Rainfall measured at CUY SAINT FIACRE_SAPC, 7.7 km away at 104 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[13]

What property sold for

13 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 200,000 € — 2,105 € per m² of built surface. ^[14]

The median across Seine-Maritime is 1,803 € per m², so this commune sits above it. ^[14]

These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.
